“With influences clearly rooted in the gritty, rebellious ethos of the post-punk era, this new project navigates a vivid landscape of 80s electronic pop that is at once nostalgic and refreshingly modern.” – RevivalSynth.com
“…Eddie Wrevlonne is an art unto himself, having developed his talent until a time when it can not be ignored…” – Mae de Agua
Eddie Wrevlonne is the indie-electronic bedroom-pop solo project of vocalist / multi-instrumentalist / songwriter Edward Wagner from Wrevlonne and Hearts Fail. The word “quirky” immediately comes to mind upon hearing Eddie’s stentorian, full-bodied baritone voice (reminiscent of Stephin Merritt of The Magnetic Fields) play against charming retro synth stylings that draw comparisons to early Depeche Mode, Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, and Nation of Language. Add to that a hint of playful wit, tongue-in-cheek lyrics covering topics ranging from the meaning of life to kitchen-sink melodrama, and a complete picture begins to come into focus.
Eddie Wrevlonne initially started and ended with 2014’s “Glow” EP (released only on Soundcloud and Bandcamp). After 10 years of life lived and music written, Eddie has breathed new life into the project, having just re-released “Glow” on all streaming platforms, quickly followed by the single “True Romance” on Sept. 10th, 2024, in a poppier style more indicative where the project is heading. His latest single “Merciful” will be released on Valentine’s Day 2025.
